Affluenza, typically referred to as rich bitch itch or silver spoon syndrome, is a contagious disorder usually resulting from living off the pay cheque and/or status of others. Often those affected with affluenza show symptoms early in the disease, with affected children learning to display their caregivers wealth or status in order to acquire friendships.
Contamination later in life is generally limited to those of the female persuasion who use their husband or partners status to sway the balance of power in their favour. Though seen in males on occasion, it is generally quite rare for males to be infected by the position power of their partner or spouse.
Though a cure has not been definitely established, affluenza is often treated by therapy which can include community service at a soup kitchen or homeless shelter. More intense treatment for this disorder includes forced relocation away from the source of the patients perceived power. Some professionals believe neurasnobberase inhibitors are highly effective in small doses but studies have been inconclusive. -
